﻿﻿The improbability of Atheism﻿﻿

Just one of the many miracles to reflect upon:

The Quran is a book with many miracles. Miracles that make your Jaw Drop. I will share just a mere miracle with you and ask you to reflect upon it.

The Quran says the Universe and the Earth was created in 6 periods (Quran: 10:3) and that the Earth was created in 2 periods (Quran 41:9).That tell us that according to the Quran the earth should be 1/3 (2/6) the age of the universe.

And now what does science tell us?-The Earth is 4.54 billion years old-The Universe is 13.7 billion years old

4.54/13.7 is 1/3. We have realized the ages of the Earth and the universe recently!

Quranic exegesis:

The Quran asserts that the universe in its current form has been created in 6 periods:

[Quran 7:54] Indeed, your Lord is Allah , who created the heavens and earth in six periods

The Quran also asserts that the Earth in its current form has been in existence for 2 periods:

[Quran 41:9] Say, "Do you indeed disbelieve in He who created the earth in two periods

The Quran makes it clear elsewhere that the periods discussed refer to the periods of existence:

[Quran 50:38] And indeed we created the heavens and the earth and all between them in six periods

When the Quran says that Allah created the Universe and the Earth and Everything in between them(including humans) in six days this means that the Quran is referring to the period of existence. That means that in the distant future, the Quran would say that Allah created the universe and the earth and all that is between them (what will become between them) in 7, or 8, or 9 periods and so on.

At the time of the Quranic revelation (everything in between of the universe and earth), the universe has existed for 6 periods. And the Earth (which is contained in the universe) has existed for 2 periods out of the 6. This makes the Earth to be 2/6th (1/3rd ) the age of the universe.

Modern cosmology estimates that the universe is 13.7 billion years old and that the Earth is 4.54 billion years old. 4.54/13.7 is roughly 1/3rd. So according to modern cosmology, the Earth should be roughly 1/3rd the age of the universe. This cosmological finding complements the Quran and therefore makes the Quran scientifically accurate in its account for the relative ages of the universe and the Earth.

I ask the reader of this to open your mind, open your heart, drop the stereotypes and be honest and sincere with yourselves. When you see many of these scientific facts that we discover today remain consistent with the Quran, at what point do those facts remain a coincidence.

Why Islam?

The Quran is the last divine revelation from Lord Almighty. It is a book of wonder, amazement and jaw dropping facts; The way it is presented in a unique style of language and the numerical and scientific accuracies within it should raise some questions.

If a book were to be the last divine revelation from God until the end of times it would have to exhibit some features:

1.) It would have to be timeless and information/codes within the book should be able to be discovered throughout human time2.) Its book would have to be preserved until the end of time. Since no more revelations are coming the last one must be preserved

We find that the Quran exhibits both of these features We are finding out numerical codes in the Quran and it is a work in progressand We are finding out that when new scientific discoveries come about, that verses in the Quran already explained it. We also know that the Quran is preserved until the end of time. It is the most memorized and recited book in the world, that even if a word is not recited properly during prayer, the Muslims correct the leader of prayer. This book is memorized by so many Muslims and its original manuscripts are preserved-unchanged, un-corrupted. This book has remained with us for over 1400 years without change, just as the almighty God intended.

I also ask that you ponder the question: Would it make sense that the book given the honor of most recited and memorized book in the world would be God's word? A book timeless, perfectly preserved until the end of time, filled with scientific miracles and numerical jaw dropping consistencies just happens to all be coincidence.
